A Revista Gaúcha de Enfermagem (RGE) é um periódico científico editorado pela Escola de Enfermagem e de Saúde Coletiva da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS). Breve histórico A Revista Gaúcha de Enfermagem (RGE) foi criada em 1976 pela Escola de Enfermagem e de Saúde Coletiva da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), com o objetivo inicial de proporcionar aos enfermeiros do sul do país um veículo para divulgação de seus trabalhos. É o quarto periódico da área de enfermagem mais antigo no Brasil e o primeiro no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. A RGE esteve vinculada ao Departamento de Assistência e Orientação Profissional da Escola de Enfermagem e de Saúde Coletiva, sendo assumida, em 1982, pela Direção desta Escola. Sua publicação no formato eletrônico teve início em maio de 2008, com a utilização da plataforma SEER (OJS), adotada pela UFRGS (www.seer.ufrgs.br/rgenf), onde está disponibilizada sua coleção completa, desde o v.1, 1976. Em 2010, a RGE passa a integrar a biblioteca eletrônica SciELO (www.scielo.br/rgenf) e a partir de 2018 (v.39), passou a ser publicada na modalidade rolling pass, exclusivamente no formato eletrônico (E-ISSN 1983-1447). Conformidade com a Ciência Aberta A RGE solicita o preenchimento do Formulário sobre Conformidade com a Ciência Aberta que deve ser submetido no sistema ScholarOne como arquivo suplementar. Open Access: A Revista Gaúcha de Enfermagem segue o modelo de Acesso Aberto (Open Acess), permitindo o acesso virtual, sem restrição (incluindo restrições financeiras), a todos os textos científicos publicados pelo periódico. Acesso aberto é a condição em que o detentor dos direitos autorais de um trabalho acadêmico concede direitos de uso a terceiros usando uma licença aberta (Creative Commons Attribution, CC-BY), permitindo acesso gratuito imediato ao trabalho e autorizando qualquer usuário a ler, baixar, copiar, distribuir, imprimir, pesquisar ou vincular os textos completos dos artigos, rastreá-los para indexação, passá-los como dados para software ou usá-los para qualquer outra finalidade legal. Ética na publicação Com relação às boas práticas e ética na divulgação científica, a RGE adota as recomendações dos códigos de conduta ética em publicação científica do Commitee on Publication Ethics (COPE). Orienta-se também pelo “Guia SciELO de Boas Práticas para o Fortalecimento da Ética na Publicação Científica”.
